Look ahead as we pass, try and focus on itI won't be fooled by a cheap cinematic trickIt must have been just a cardboard cut out of a manTop forty cast off from a record stand

Walkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LA

I don't know could've been a lame jogger maybeOr someone just about to do the freeway strangler babyShopping cart pusher or maybe someone groovyOne thing's for sure, he isn't starring in the movies'Cause he's walkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, only a nobody walks in LA

You won't see a cop walkin' on the beatNobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

You only see 'em drivin' cars out on the streetNobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

You won't see a kid walkin' home from schoolNobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

Their mothers pick 'em up in a car poolNobody's walkin' walkin' walkin' walkin'

Walkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LA

Could it be that the smog's playing tricks on my eyesOr is it a roller skater in some kind of headphone disguiseMaybe somebody who just ran out of gasMaking his way back to the pumps the best way he can

Walkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, nobody walks in LAWalkin' in LAWalkin' in LA, only a nobody walks in LA
